We went 20 miles from Tingler Road to Losantville (then back again - 40 mile round trip). It was a gorgeous day in November 2025 (a few days after a snowstorm) It was in the high 60's so we decided to get another ride in. I would highly recommend this trail. Even though you cross quite a few roads, they aren't busy, so I think we only came across 1 car as we crossed. Part is a little noisy, because you go along the highway, but most of it is pretty quiet. Crossed a few streams/rivers. Lots of farmland too. We'd like to ride more of the Cardinal GW, it was worth the hour drive for us to get there.
Would love for them to keep going with this trail! Love it! Please put street signs where we stop! That would be great
I started in Trenton and rode to Piqua, spent the night there and road back the next day.. my trip north.. it was good until I got to Dayton.. somehow I didn't quite get on the right trail, I run two apps on my phone so as I was confused, I used my GPS for help.. it took me through a neighbor hood I wouldn't travel in at night.. but after I while my GPS put me back on the trail.. sort of the same thing in Troy but not as bad.. the trails go be better marked.. I really started likeing the trail more once I got through Troy.. very beautiful are.. and it was a great ride.. 69.28 miles one way.. I was very tired and very sore at the end of my ride and slept very well that night LOL.. on the way back south.. I found the trail somewhat better marked and easier to follow especailly though Troy and Dayton..
got down to Franklin.. and seen 4 to 5 American Bald Eagals.. what an awesome sight.. sadly by the time I got my camera out, all but one had flown off.. I was disapointed.. I waited around, hoping they'd come back.. but the didn't.. not while I was there.. I had to leave, it would be getting dark on me sooner than I like..
All and all.. it was a great ride.. very tired and sore but it was worth it.. I will probably do this ride again maybe next year... but got a lot other trails to ride before coming back to this one.. :)
A few days ago we rode round trip from Richmond to Gaston, stopping for an overnight in Muncie. Overall it's a really nice trail. The only knock is that it starts to approach the "tunnel of trees"- pretty much that and farmland. Suggest taking a little detour to the Prairie Creek Reservoir area.
Pluses: a consistent, wide trail that is generally well maintained with a lot of rest stops, clean bathrooms, & shelters. Minuses: there are a few sections with cracked pavement, but they are well marked; created our own detour around the I-70 closure on-road.
A shout out to Dan at cycling and fitness Warehouse to letting us leave our car there overnight. It would be nice if the trail organizers came up with a safe spot at City Hall or something similar.
Note there is no closure at railroad bridge in Richmond. Only I-70.
Incredible find. Beautiful trail. We parked in Tipp City and started on mile 3 in the city park. Rode to Troy where trail splits but actually takes a left turn to historic downtown Troy (sign). Then in Troy trail splits again by river and to continue on to Pique you must stay on the right. Not under bridge but over it. There signs will show GMRT to continue on to Pique. (We follow trail going by Treasure Island. ). Trail ends at Lock 9 in Piqua. You are right downtown. Ate at Crooked Handle which is off trail.
This is a very well maintained trail. Piqua is a very nice trail town.
I rode this trail south from the Muncie Depot, on 9/18/25. 2 blocks south the trail was diverted onto side streets due to construction of a new overpass. No apparent detour signs going south, so I had a bit of a time finding my way. This trail is ok, but showing signs of ageing, with numerous bad cracks in the pavement that need some attention. I would advise riding north from the depot until construction is finished (maybe late 2026?). Depot has bathroom and a gift shop.
Great trail with beautiful views of nature. Largo has a nice bistro to stop for a rest and enjoy a nice meal.
This is a nice trail, well maintained & good signage in both directions on the short road section.
